This was our second visit to Antigua but our first time at Starr house. Contact with the owner Nicky was flawless. We were met at the airport by Titi he had been recommended by Nicky for our car rental he drove us to the house where the rental was waiting. The agent was also there to show us around the house. The house is well maintained and clean the kitchen is well equipped. The pool and deck area are very private and the view is spectacular. I would definitely rent this home again it is in a great location for restaurants and beaches.
Starr House is a perfect place to stay in Antigua! It has stunning views of Falmouth. It was very clean, well-equipped and very comfortable. Nicky was so helpful with our booking. You do need a hire car. There are some very good restaurants nearby with 5 Senses and Cloggys as our favourites. Excellent snorkelling at Galleon beach, we saw sea turtles and stingrays. Starr House is highly recommend.
For fear of again never finding an open week, I must say the Starr House is amazing! Perfectly kept. Spectacular views. Wonder host. Beautifully perched on a southern facing slope overlooking Falmouth Harbor, you get the best of both sunrises and sunsets. The pool was very private and proved to be the focal point of the living space. The breeze over Monks Hill above was refreshing and kept the mosquitoes mostly at bay. However nets at night were necessary. The local beaches and restaurants of English Harbor were easily assessable. The local grocery stores were well stocked and had everything one would need. The kitchen was well equipped and the gas grill next to the outdoor eating area was key. A car rental is a must. Driving the island is very easy and can also be quite an adventure. A 4WD is needed for the more interesting areas. Highly recommended!
We booked this property without knowing much about the island and it turned out to be exactly where we would have chosen had we known. Falmouth Harbor was delightful and accessible within minutes. Our favorite restaurants were upstairs and down at the Yacht Club, Cloggy's and Captain's Quarters since all were on the water. Also Catherine's on Pidgeon Beach where we had a drink although at the other end, Bumpkins had our favorite drink ever, Banana Pina Colada! Sunday or Thursday evenings at Shirley Heights Look-out is not to be missed either. (Reservations are required during covid.) We rented a car and easily got around by preloading destinations into phone while on wifi for gps. On our Tropical Adventures catamaran tour we had them pick us up and return for $20 each which was great. They also let us stay longer in St Johns afterward to explore a little. As for the house, impeccable in every way, sparkling clean and ample supplies (and masks) if necessary. Our leisurely mornings were the best, just enjoying the tranquility and view, always outdoors. Even when a rain squall comes through, you're protected at the outdoor table and is pretty to watch. Every amenity is provided and fresh flowers add a finishing touch. We had no issues with mosquitos but kept the doors closed since all windows were screened with shutters. This house is my favorite type of rental, no clutter yet decorated with just the right amount of local ambiance.
Well layed out house, with bonus views from the pool. Helpful and responsive owner and manager.
Fantastic villa with excellent outdoor area to enjoy during day and in evenings. Great location for exploring English harbour/Falmouth.
Very functional house and convenient location. My family of 5 really enjoyed it.
Each year we travel a week away from the cold and snow to the Caribbean, and this year we picked Antigua. This house was great! Situated about 40 minutes from the airport, this house is nestled in the side of a hill with sweeping views over English Harbour. This is a nice side of the island for people who want to be away from the city center/cruise ships; English Harbour is where all of the yachts dock, and so it has its own night life and great restaurant offerings within about an 8 minute drive from the house. With a car, exploring beaches and hiking options from the house were also relatively easy to do. The house itself seems new; extremely clean, well equipped, and they even provide a service that rotates out fresh drinking water jugs several times a week. It did get hot some days without A/C, but the fans at night worked out, and the mosquito netting on all beds/screens on the windows help keep the bugs at bay. A collection of beach towels, bug spray and sunscreen available at the house were welcomed, especially when you have limited packing room. We spent a lot of time outside on the deck to relax and swim the in large pool overlooking the harbour. You will get some noise from the neighboring animals, insects, and some road noise below, but that seems to be the case at any island we've been to. The power did go out twice during our stay due to outages on that side of the island, but nothing we could do about it! Property manager was very responsive and met us at the property for check in. I would recommend renting a car (4x4 preferred) to explore the island and to get to/from the house. Great property!
We enjoyed relaxing week in Starr house - exceeded our expectations - much better than online phots!
One of the best spots on the island. Falmouth is by far the place to be because it close to the best restaurants and beaches. You will NOT be disappointed. The Starr House is amazing and see will definitely be back. Thank you very much Nick.
